In another of the sure signs of spring, I could swear I heard my motorcycle call out to me as I passed it in the garage today telling me it was time to get out and ride!  I took a nice 30 degree ride into the motorcycle shop last Saturday morning and had a new battery put in and I am ready to go.  Pretty soon, I will be riding the bike to work.

Funny thing, the motorcycle has more power than the Prius.  Then again, the Prius gets better gas mileage.  Doesn’t really matter though.  Riding that bike is a lot of fun.  Come on spring!

Of course, in spring, young people everywhere turn their hearts and minds to love.  That reminds me that I have a way of testing the mettle of prospective girlfriends for my sons (I have actually done this).  First, I put them on the back of the motorcycle and ride to the airport (freeways, country roads, city roads all included).  Then, I put them in my airplane and take them flying.  If they can handle all of that, without screaming too much, they are definitely interested in my boys and pass the test.
